ldap3, markdown, zipp, qrcode and tzdata are not imported anywhere and
no installed package needs them on Linux with Python 3.10-3.13: LDAP
login uses python-ldap through django-auth-ldap, QR codes come from
django-qr-code (segno), qrcode is only an optional django-otp extra,
tzdata is a Windows-only Django dependency and TIME_ZONE is UTC.
python-engineio stays pinned next to python-socketio, which requires it.
The test suite passes with the five packages uninstalled.
django-login-required-middleware is dropped; Django 5.1+ ships the same
middleware. The login page is already marked login_not_required by
Django; email_otp gets the decorator, which replaces
LOGIN_REQUIRED_IGNORE_VIEW_NAMES. The datasource still requires login.
Existing settings.py files still name the old middleware. A system
check (accounts.E002) stops migrate and the server until MIDDLEWARE
uses Django's middleware, instead of an ImportError at startup; the
README has the steps.
A new matrix test walks every URL anonymously: everything outside a
short allowlist (login pages, the OpenAPI docs) sends the visitor to
the login page, and API views deny with 401/403. It passed with the old
middleware first and passes unchanged now.
Django 4.2 reached end of life on 2026-04-07.
- Django==5.2.17; django-login-required-middleware 0.9.0 keeps working
(the authorization matrix passes).
- USE_L10N removed from the settings template.
- Log out is a POST form in the navbar; Django 5 removed GET logout.
- pip-audit in CI no longer ignores the Django 4.2.30 advisories.
- README: Django 5.2, backup step and upgrade notes for existing
settings and GET logout callers.
python -Wd manage.py test shows no Django deprecation warnings. The live
libvirt suite passes on 5.2 and on 4.2 against a RHEL qemu-kvm host.
- Matrix 3.10-3.13; pip cache keyed on the requirements.
- New steps: makemigrations --check, spectacular --validate
--fail-on-warn, check --deploy --fail-level ERROR, pip-audit of the
installed environment (the Django 4.2.30 advisories are ignored until
the Django 5.2 upgrade), and a Docker image build.
- The separate vrtManager unittest run is dropped; manage.py test
already runs those tests.
- CodeQL also runs on pull requests to master.
- Docker installs into a plain venv instead of using the distro's
python3-lxml and python3-libvirt; lxml>=6.1, since the distro's
lxml 5.2.1 has CVE-2026-41066.
- dev requirements add ruff and pip-audit.
